People can Do for the church and What
the church can no for Them—Sermons
Preacher! by Other Pastors.
7 Yesterday morning the Rev. B. O.
Shawood's discourse assumed the form
101 stalk, the theme being, “Our Young
People; What Can they do for the
Climb and What the Church Can do for
Them." The pastor spoke of the Chris-
tlsn Endeavor and the Baptist Young
He said
they were truly great movements,which,
if rightly directed, might do much
toward the evangelization of the world.
The present age is one of organization,
and this may really result in good or
on, although the combination of minds
and united work is naturally conductive
of good; there are dangers, however.
Energies may be consumed in the organi-
zation itself and the efforts produce only
a one-sidednese. We often find expres-
sion given to the idea that the societies
‘ ‘ take the place of real purity; this isa
great mistake. Sometimes people are
asked, “Are you a Christian?” and the
answer is, “I am anactive member of
the Young People’s Society of Christian
Endeavor,” and the thought they seem
to wish to convey is that that is all that
is required. The energies and enthusi-
ast- of youth are enlisted in Christian
savlce, specific ends are sought,
' strength is multiplied, the young peo-

acquire religious habits. All this is pro-
duced and encouraged in the various so-
cieties of the church and ought who
used to better fit the members for life
service in Christ’s cause. It was a prac.
'tical talk. The musical portion of the
services was of especial interest. Mrs.
Imogene Ross and Miss Jennie Punzelt
sang the duett “Invisible Land," as ar-
ranged by Herbert Leslie, and the solo,
“Cast thy Bread on the Waters,” by J.
L. Roeckel, was sung by Frank Com-
stock. Both selections were rendered
with feeling and imparted interest to the
.service.
“OUR COMMON CH RISTIANITY."
l, ' W
I, v. G. H. Board’s Sermon at the Union
Service at the Baptist Church.
3, Rev. Gerald H. Beard occupied the
of the South Norwalk Baptist
in the evening, when aunion ser-
‘ participated in by the Congrega-
3 l and Baptist congregations, was
old. His subject was a most fitting one,
‘Our Common Christianity.” The text
was taken from Ephesians ii., 9, and the
, erseefollowing. A leading thought in
{the thorougly earnest and helpful sermon
‘ was that the love of Christ ought to so
ll our hearts that we become lruly
, ne of and joint heirs with Christ. The
latrength of a church lies in its unity, in
lite Christian fellowship. There ought to
Esau class distinctions, but we ought
l. ch matrive for that ncurnoss to (ind
which shall be like unto kinship, and
nulne Christian cornradeship shall
the result. Tile llrst requirement is to
beChristians, and secondly comes our
denominational standing. It is not
_whether we are litlplisln or Congrega-
tionalists, but whether we love and bo-
lieve ill Christ. linmity shall then (were,
for Christ is our pence; only while we
l were without him were ive aliens. Now
clotting Christ live in us we become real
brothers, bound together by a common
bond of brotherhood. Each church in
'thls community in a member in and
#shb‘uld be a co-workor with the other for
Christ. The music was grand and in-
spiring. Dudley Buck's “Festival To
Denm," one of the finest if not the finest
written, Scbncckcr'e “Nearer my God to
Thee" and “The Vesper llymn" by
Kelly. produced an impressiventss felt by

Rev. A. S. stunagh's subject ymlcr‘
day morning was the “Greeks Sucking

! cat, which the pastor treated in an able
manner. In the evening. at the peeple‘s
' service. a large congregation gathered to
.1 the third sermon in the series on a
Drama cf‘a Century.” Mr. Kavanagh’s
m e was "Thugs and Aussiam in the

It was a most spirited sermon, full of

singing was spirited. An oilertory solo.
"Not a Sparrow Falleth," was sung in a
very fine manner by Miss Miller, of
Stamford.
LESSONS FROM THE STRIKE.
What Ought to be Done to Keep Down
these Outbursts of Lawleuneu.
The practical sermon upon the great
Chicago strike, delivered by the Rev. T.
K. Noble, at the Norwallr Congregation-
al church, yesterday morning, was lis-
tuned to by a large congregation, and
was regarded as one of the best sermons
ever delivered in the church. His theme
was “Lawlessnees and some of its Ines-
sons.” The text was Ezekiel vii., 23:
”Makeachain, for the land is full of
bloody crimes and the city is lull of vio-
lence.” He opened his discourse by pie-
turing the disorder, violence and awful
less of money and life caused by the
lawlessness of the past two Weeks, call-
ing attention to the cause of the strike,
which, he said, was simply a difference
between the Pullman company and its
employees in respect to the wages to be
received in the manufacturing of three
hundred Pullman cars, amounting in the
aggregate to only $25,000. Mr. Noble
then spoke of the underlying causes. and
raised the practical question of what
ought to be done. He found it answered
in the old prophet’s command, "Make a
chain,” and to make it strong enough to
keep down these outbursts of lawlessness
which have caused so much strife and
brought about so much disgrace.
He declared that this chain must be
forged of strong links of authority, obli.
gation, justice, education, temperance,
arbitration and applied Christianity. The
evening was devoted to the ninth stage
of Pilgrim's I’rogress,"Through the Edu-
cational Sand.”
At the Nor-walk Methodist Church.
Rev. A. J. Smith. of the East Norwalk
Methodist church, occupied the pulpit of
the Norwalk Methodist church, yester-
day morning. In the evening Rev. A.ll.
Wyatt preached the twelfth of the series
of sermons upon “David and his Times."

Services at St. Mary's.
At St. Mary‘s church, yesterday, the
mass was conducted at the 10:30 service
by Rev. T. M. O'Brien. Rev. W. J. Slo-
cum gave a fifteen-minute sermon of
instruction upon the gospel,
A Tale of Sull‘oring null Starvation,
A terrible tale of suffering and starva-
tion is told of a party of South Norwnlk
young men who went out sailing on the
Sound, Saturday. The party, composed
of Captain (luy l’elton. A. W. llrcyfuss,
Clarence llunt, John Carroll and a Daily
News reporter, left the dock in Mr. l’cl'
ton‘s yacht for the fishing grounds.
The bad captured a good mess of lish,
and as they saw clouds in the sky and
heard the roaring thunder, they surmis-
cd that a storm was about to break over
them. Ill-ing some miles from shore
they decided to start for home at once.
But that awful squall struck flu-m, and

hungry and wet. and as the storm did

NEARLY ELECTROCUTED.

ere Comes In Contact with the Trolley
and he Falls to the Ground lnsenslblc.
John 8. Morris, a lineman, was prob-
ably ae nearly electrocuted, yesterday
afternoon. as he ever cares to be, and
will not soon forget the experience he
passed through.
Mr. Morris, in company with two other
electricians, came from Danhury to run
the Postal Telegraph company’s wire to
under the direction of
Manager Kearins, where a branch ofllce
is to be opened. " He was finishing up on
top of a thirty-foot trolley pole, just be-
yond Witch Lane, when the who he had
hold of droppedacross the trolley rails and
became charged with electricity. There
was a blinding flash, the flame being
several feet in diameter, and Mr. Morris
fell tothe ground, landing on a pile of
stones between the tramway tracks. He
was insensible when his fellow workmen
reached him. Several boys who were
watching the operation of stringing the
wire ran to the residence of J. .15. Ray.
mond, where water and ice were procur-
ed. The ice finally restored Mr. Morris to
consciousness, but it was several minutes
before he could recognize anyone. His
right hand was badly burned from the
awful schock. It will be several days be-
fore there will be any feeling in it. In
-the fall his right ankle was badly sprain-
ed. The poor fellow was suffering terri-
bly, but bore up bravely.
Mr. Morris was placed aboada‘frolley
car bound for South Norwalk. When
near the depot he fainted dead away,
butwas shortly revived, and taken into
Trowhridge & Co's cigar store, when,
after a few minutes‘ rest and attention,
he was taken to the Old Well llotcl.
Here Dr. W. C. Burke attended his in-
juries. and in the evening Mr. Morris
felt considerably better. As he was
anxious to get home to his family, he
boarded the 7:15 train for Dzmbury. He
has bee-n employed by that city for
some limo, engaged in reconstructing
the fire alarm/system.
There is a current of about five hun—
dred volts in the trolley wires, and they
are of very large nmplmge. if there
had been a good ground on the wire
when Mr Morris had hold of it. he
would have been shocked to death. The
running of the wires ,to the Point was
well advanced. and would have been
about completed yesterday.hut the un-
looked-for accident suddenly termina-
ted the labors of the men. it is prob
able that it will be completed today and
the telegraph ofllce at the Point be in op-
eration before the week has passed.

Tln- Atlas, of Nerrvalk, went to An-
sonir, last Saturday, to play ball with
the Welcomes. who had guaranteed the
Norwalk players $20. Should the day
the Welcomes were to give the AtlasSlO,
to be used in deiraying the expenses of
their visit. As it rained hard the greater
part of the afternoon, the game was not
called. When the Atlas boys asked for
the $10 guaranteed them, they were told
that they could not have it. This left
them without means of returning to Nor
walk by train. It looked as though the
nine would have to count the ties back
to this city. One of the members met a
friend, however, who kindly loaned the
club sullicicnt funds to reach Bridgeport,
where Fred llull gave an exhibition of
fancy and trick pool play ing. after which
acolloction was taken up, and by this
